Who? Me?
Well you're here now, you might as well introduce yourself. Oh, me first? So I'm @irms and this is my blog. I care about things like entrepreneurship and how Pepsi tastes better out of a glass bottle. (read more)

The 59DaysOfCode Web & Mobile Apps Competition
February 25th, 2010
So my friends and I are putting together this little ditty that, really, is going to be quite the big ditty. We are holding a Web & Mobile Apps competition that is designed to highlight the programming/nerdy talent in the area. It’s open to everyone and the prizes are pretty major.
We are doing two categories: Zero Code, and In-Progress.
Zero Code is a timed category. You have 59 Days to build your app once the clock starts.
In-Progress is for those who might already have something started but still want to compete.
The way that it works is this:
Apply, Early March > Party + Kickoff, April 23 > Get your App Ready > Showcase + Awards, June 22.
We’re putting together around $40K in prizes with one of the winners landing $15,000 in cash. (More details about prizes in the next month or so.) The idea is, though, that after someone wins, my friends and I pull all our resources together to make your idea famous and successful. Sounds nice, huh?
Registration opens next week.

A New Look, Some New Projects
November 25th, 2009
Don’t get too excited, I didn’t design this myself. I just modified it until I liked it enough to use it.
More importantly, stay tuned in the coming weeks for some news about some of these things:
- Mexican Medicine
- The Birthday Season
- Fresno’s First Ever Web & Mobile Apps Competition
- Pantherslive
- Gratuitous Thoughts on Geekery
Until then, have a safe Thanksgiving (US only, the rest of you: just be safe).
